Recently I was invited to a media event at Firehouse Subs, which I had never been to before. They plied us with sandwiches as they told us about their history, quality vendors, and philanthropic endeavors. Here’s what we ate:

Hook and Ladder

Smokehouse Beef and Cheddar Brisket

Corned Beef Brisket

Italian

I walked out full and impressed. The Hook and Ladder was my favorite. And the fresh crunchy pickles were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Also impressive is the importance Firehouse Subs places on giving back. They have donated more than $5.7M (so far) to provide life-saving equipment and educational opportunities to first responders in 36 states and their Public Safety Foundation continues to raise funds for ongoing financial help and disaster support. Please donate or consider simply rounding up your change when you shop there to contribute to their important mission.

Do you live near a Firehouse Subs? They generously gave me a bunch of gift cards to give away. Leave a comment telling me what your favorite sandwich is to be entered to win a $10 giftcard. I’ll randomly draw names next Saturday (2/16/2013) and contact the winners.

Partial to the brisket but haven’t had a bad sub there. Only one I haven’t tried is the one with mushrooms. I’m not that much of a fungi. Get it? Bad pun alert. When I need a healthy kick I get the chicken or turkey with no mayo and have them put on the store hot sauce before they steam the meat. It really adds a good flavor.

Hey Kristen. Aren’t they the best!!! I’m from Jacksonville, FL home of Firehouse Subs and I never liked subs until they came along. My favorite is the Engineer. I’d love to win one. This economy has put a halt to going out to eat anything and it sure would be a nice break.

Thanks for letting me enter. I’m a new follower of your blog and would love you to stop by and visit mine some time.
